I got the magazine pretty regularly until my premium auto-renewed a while ago, and haven't received it since.

I applaud you all for voting with your consumer dollars. I'm sure Alla hears you. I wish I didn't.

That is all.

I just got the message that I'd been auto-renewed, but I'm 99% sure today wasn't my renewal date. And as for the magazine, I've never gotten one of those either (not that I would've read it anyway).

My auto-renewal date was shortly before all the hoopla broke out, and so I assumed nothing had changed. Now, almost a full month later, not only is auto-renewal off, but it gives me no notice. For that reason alone, I may not renew. Nothing pisses me off like lack of communication and bad customer service.

Suck it, TStephens. You're not the boss of me!

Nothing to see here, no, no, Dana didn't do an incorrect query and misinterpret a typo Flea made when she first signed up for premium as a renewal error, nope!

The magazine is free. We haven't changed our prices since we launched the service in 2001. I am amazed at how many people complain about getting a free magazine that costs $20 everywhere else with their $10 premium subscription.

Clearly a blatent scam to addict them to the magazine and make them degenerate pulp 4 color printing junkies. Ohhh SURE the first year's free, but then when you're breaking into doctor's waiting rooms in the middle of the night to read the Sept 98 Madmoselle, then you charge them!

We all know it works, we're not as naive as you think!

I received the print version of the magazine once and then just e-mailed reminders to see the on-line version.

At least the print version could be taken into the bathroom with me; the e-mails about the on-line version just get deleted.

Who's complaining about getting one? Smiley: dubious

I have high hopes that one fine day, you will fall into the darkside.

Just wait until you find that console controller that feels almost as if it was a part of you, seperated from birth.

Then the rest will fall into place.

I still haven't found it. Big hands. For my PC I use a Nyko controller with a little fan in it to keep my hands from getting sweaty, but that's as close as I have come to developing a meaningful relationship with an input device.

Anyone?

Are you kidding? I don't have the hand-eye coordination necessary to draw a symmetrical stick-figure, much less play any kind of video game. I never even beat the first level of the original Mario Brothers, and that's the way I like it.
F'ucking mushrooms.



Ah, I feel like myself again. PC Magazine was the closest thing on there to a non-gaming mag, so expect to see that in the mail, Joph.

And this is exactly why you should play MMO's. No coordination, talent or skill required!

I mean hey, all of us play, so how hard can it be??
